Description Benjamin Southall CLA 2007-12-19 21:03:36 EST 
Using 0.5 Zest and 3.2.2 GEF, currently the code responsible for the creation and resizing nodes (width, height) in the layout algorithms (particularly Spring Layout Algorithm) ignores the label or text associated with that node.

This leads to objects / nodes being created or resized whose labels are not longer visible or clearly visible. It would be nice to have the node only resizing to  the smallest or most appropriate size that still allows for the text to be read / visible.
